Hi all. I know many of your on here one the E-350 in one trim or another. I've been debating an E-350 Turtletop for a conversion. One that I found has the 6.0L.
I've had diesel trucks before, one Ford 6.9L and then four Dodges. Two 5.9Ls and two 6.7Ls.
Being a Dodge guy I didn't care to own the 6.0L. However, seeing as I may go the van route, sticking with the Ford E-350, I really only have two options in the years I can afford, the 6.0L or the V10.
Of course, if I went older I could get the 7.3L.
After seeing ad after ad of Sportsmobiles and other modified vans, I came to realize most of the 6.0s for sale had been "bulletproof. However, mostly all the 6.0 shuttles I've seen are bone stock.
So, I guess my question is, depending on mileage and price: "Would you consider a 6.0L PSD without any preventive mods done?"
And if you said yes, what should I should I do first? Gaskets and studs?
Or just say "screw it" and get a V10?
Thanks
